And it's 1, 2, 3
What are we bombing for?
Don't ask me I'm writing a business plan
We're gonna franchise Afghanistan

And it's 5, 6, 7
we don't remember watergate
well it ain't no use to wonder why
Whoopie! we're all gonna die. 


Yeah, come on all you orphans of terror and war     
uncle sam needs you shoppin at the discount store
he's got himself in a hell of slump
so he needs you to get out there and prime the pump
So put a flag on your antenna and drive to the mall
we're gonna have one helluva ball. 

And it's one, two, three,
What are we shopping for?
Don't ask me and I won't tell
We're gonna shop Osama straight to hell
And it's five, six, seven,
Open up those purses please
Well there ain't no time to wonder why,
Whoopee! we're all gonna die.
